negative values of pressure

July 20, 2004, 06:26

sir, I had used FLUENT to study the pressure drop acroos a sieve of 12 mm dia. Gas and liquid are flowing down through the sieve from different inlet.The boundary conditions used are velocity inlet and pressure outlet. but i am getting negative values of total and static pressure in the contour plots. what does this signify. kindly help as soon as possible. thank you samir

These are gauge pressures relative to the operating pressure set in the operating conditions panel (defaults 101325Pa)
